Italtel and Exprivia have announced the launch of an advanced telemedicine solution. It brings together Italtel’s DoctorLINK open web platform with Exprivia’s eLifeCare home care solution, by providing the required infrastructure and services necessary for complete care management.

The combined platform integrates remote monitoring, telemedicine and remote consultation, the monitoring and purchase of medical drugs, storage and analysis systems and the recording of medical data. DoctorLINK uses WebRTC technology, IoT and contextual communication to provide real-time services to simplify and improve interaction between outpatients and the hospital. Through this solution, operated on a smartphone or tablet, medical practitioners can monitor and manage patients in real-time and put them in contact with doctors and specialists via remote video.

“The adoption of platforms and solutions supporting a new healthcare model based on care management, de-hospitalization, remote consultation and secure access to personal medical data is key to modern and smart healthcare systems that put user satisfaction at their center,“ said Fiorenzo Piergiacomi, Head of Public Sector Account Unit at Italtel. The platform also allows doctors to record patients’ vital signs in real-time and store records of current treatments, prescriptions and analysis to better inform any changes in therapy, as well as sharing of audio, video and text files and images that are necessary for the therapy.
